The Secret Of Advertising.

"The business man who has learned to
advertise has acquired one OF the principal
elements Of success" said a printer OF
some experience. ''The secret of adver-
Using is not so much to have the notice
read as to have it believed. To lose the
confidence of the public is to lose your
trade. If you advertise in an undignitied
manner people begin to look upon you as
a fakir and your goods as shoddy. The
largest advertiser in Philadelphia set the
example of taking the public into his con-
fidence and announcing his goods in an
unassuIning manner. His style has been
adopted by nearly all the leading houses.
A person of refinement doesn't like TO be
admonished by a tradesman not to be d
chump. and he pays little heed to the man
who tells him that his prices knock the
spots off a speckled pig When you want
a suit of clothes the last place you think
OF going to is the store that advertiseS
gents pants To come back to my own
trade, there are few printers in the bust
ness now. They are all either typograph-
ers or typographical artists, and l know
Of one man who advertised himself as q
worker in the black art and manipu-
lator of the adjustable alphabet
There was a personal in one of the
Sunday papers some time ago ola literary
gent of world wide reputation. That
fellow betrayed himself by one word, and
probably never knew how he did it. Onc
needn't go far to see the questionable
taste of many storekeepers. Boots and
shoes are advertised as foot gear, fish as
sea food and liquors as wet goods
The men who peddle grapes from push
carts at three cents per half pound have
Il habit of turning down one end of their
paper signs SO that the word half is

If there is to be any ''dewIns" in Chey-
enne on the 4th of July, it is certainly
time that sone move was being made to
that end. While there are a great many
who are in favor OF holding a good old
fashioned celebration Daring the free
lunch), there are others who think that
e have had so many big days in Chey-
enne lately hat it would be almost lmpos-
stole to get up a celebration here on the
4th. In regard to this. however, it might
be said that nothing is impossible with
Cheyenne, but whether it will pay is
another question. So far no steps have
been taken to hold celebrations in any OF
Jul neighboring towns. and if Cheyenne
should move in the matter first they
might give up the idea ofhaving anything
at home, and all come to Cheyenne in
stead. Our own people, or most of them.
would stay at home and spend their mon
ey here at all events.

The Criminal Campaign.

The criminal campaign will open in
earnest next week, and the following cases
are, as the docket now stands, to be taken
up on the days herein mentioned:
The case of the Territory vs. CaVa-
naugh GENES up for trial on Monday, the
9th of June; that against Brennan on
the 7th; Coleman's case on the 9th, and
on the 10th and llth of June criminal
cases have also been set for trial. June
l3 the Trumble murder case is to be tax
en- up, and it is supposed that it will
occupy the courts attention up to and
including June Is. Oh the 10th the Vim.
Mccoy murder case will come on for trial
and will probably last three days, if not
longer, and on the 10Th and 10th of June
the cases Of Philip Watson and Jesse
Lockwood will be taken up for trial in the
order indicated, they both being under
indictment for being accessories before
the fact to the murder of Charles s.
Gum.
There are several other criminal cases
that have not as yet been set for trial, and
there will probably be a number of other
indictments returned by the grand jury
before that body concludes its labors.

1t was rumored on the streets yesterday
that the company Of colored cavalry which
has been in camp for some days between
Camp Carlin and Fort Russell, had de
parted on a raid against the fences and
that the troopers had gone in a south

sentative sought in various WAYS to ascer
tain whether the rumor was well founded
or not, and for hat purpose made numer
Gus inquiries of those who had an oppor
tunity of knowing.
Strange to say, however. all such per
sons couldn't tell if they would OF
wouldn't if they could whether such was
the fact or not. 1t is evidently true, how.
